AND THE WINNER IS:
#5
SUSIE!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
I've tried to make my own cards. Just don't have the imagination for it. Luckily for me Etsy has some really wonderful shops that make beautiful handmade cards. Enchanting Dreams has cards for every occasion and holiday. Please check out the shop and enter this really wonderful give away!
Where are you from? Tell us a bit about yourself.
Hi, my name is Kristen and I reside in Michigan. I recently celebrated my one year anniversary of my shop being open on Etsy. I can't believe a year has passed already. It has flown by! I have been grateful to meet some wonderful people on Etsy and can't wait to see what the years ahead have in store for me!
Why did you start your business?
I heard about Etsy from a family member. At first I had signed up to be a buyer since I saw some very unique and talented artists and wanted to purchase some of their items for gifts for the holidays. I have always been a crafty person, making cards for family and friends for their birthdays. Whenever they found out that I made the card for them they would always say I should consider selling them and those type of compliments got me to thinking and I decided to start a shop on Etsy and see if it worked out. The first day I had posted a card on Etsy, I got my first sale! From that day forward I have been selling since then!
What inspires you?
I can't think of one thing that inspires me, but I think it's a combination of my craft supplies, being earth friendly (in some of my cards I use words and quotes I cut out from magazines and old calendars), and my imagination. I never know what will inspire me next!
What are 5 things you want people to think of when they see your product?
The 5 things I want people to think of when they see one of my cards is that there is:
- quality workmanship
- attention to detail
- unique
- handcrafted
- and uses quality supplies.
What's your supply addiction?
I love scrapbooking paper so I would say that's my number one addiction. Paper is so versatile that it has so many uses...you just have to use your imagination! I love picking out different types/patterns of paper and finding coordinating things to make my next great card!
What do you do when you're not being an artist? What activities do you enjoy?
I enjoy spending time with family and friends, going to NYC, reading novels, and taking in the 4 seasons (fall, winter, spring, and summer) that Michigan has to offer!
Are there any other places on the net we can you find?
